The Clock Was Set.

He was darby who wanted an alarm
clock This was his mission when he en-
tered Harris jewelry store After getting in
there he informed the accommodating clerk
of the nature of his visit, and that individ-
ual fastened to wait on him. He wished the
clock set, so as to spring the alarm at $3.50
a. m, rs that was the hour at which he had
to get up, as he worked in restaurant that
required early service. He was particular
as to the time he wanted it go off, for he
was going to the theatre to spend the ear
her part of the evening and was anxious not
to oversleep himself the next morning Tom
Rogers, the clerk, jocose fellow on such
occasions, at once saw the opportunity TO
have some fun at the dark purchasers ex-
pense and took advantage of the same. He
set the alarm accurately to 60 off at $50

price and handed over the parcel. The
buyer put the timepece into his overcoat

with his best girl took a seat in the gallery.
He soon became absorbed in the fate of the
hero on the stage and had no thought of his
overcoat, that he laid on the chair next to
him. Everything was perfectly quiet.
Suddenly there was a resounding chatter in
the pocket of that big coat. Such a going
around and buzzing interrupted the gallery
proceedings. The shock aroused him from
his reveries and his seat at the same instant.
With frantic clutch he grabbed the coat.
clapped his hat over the instrument of
noise, vainly endeavoring to still its din.

The Contribution Box,

WHO SAVED THE TRAINsf

Two trains came speeding along the track
CTwas bitter cold night in winter time)
And the switchman nodded over his fire
With never a thought Of crime.
Twas bitter night, and the snow was thick,
The fire was warm and he nodded long,
. His senses benumbed by fatigue and cold,
But never intending wrong
The trains came rushing laden with lives
Alas, for them with no guard at the switch!
For the switchmans lever is mighty to save
Ordestroy and this night 'twould be-which!
His Newfoundland dog lay close TO his feet,
With silken ears all alert to hear,
And bright eyes steadfastly keeping watch
For possible danger near.
A distant rumbling smote his ear.
And swift as fash to his feet he sprang,
Eagerly pulling his masters coat,
And loudly his sharp bark rang.
The switchman rose to his feet in haste,
And saw. through the heavily falling snow,
The bowling winds and bitter night,
Two fiery headlights glow
He sprang to his duty. The trains swept by,
Laden with precious humanity
Peacefully sleeping, not knowing how near
They had been to eternity!

MANY WAYS OF UTILIZING

The Numerous Things Which Our Fore
fathers Threw Away.
There are hundreds of things which our
forefathers threw away which we find many
ways of utilizing. Within generation the
residuary products arising from the manu-
facture of gas, which were formerly consid-
cred worthless, have through pew methods Of
distillation and manufacture been made to
| yield coal oil, salts of ammonia, naphtha, tar,
pitch, creoso e, benzole, carbclic acid,
parafiine, aniline, napthaline, and by COM
| bination with coal, shales, alum, copperas
and suIphuric acid. So it is with the con
tents of the ragpickers' bag. Wooden rags,
old stockings, white flannel, carpeting, serge,
| tailors' trimmings, old coats, gowns and
other condemned garments are sent to the
shoddy manufacturer, where they are torn
into shreds, mixed with new wool and manu-
featured into cheap and serviceable cloth.
Wooden rags are also ground up into flock
and artificial flowers and can always be used
no matter how old.
Linen cloths are sent to the paper manu-
facturer and transformed into the best paper.
The enormous shop of Marcus Ward & Co.,
at Belfast, Ireland, depends largely upon the
linen manufactures Of that place for its
paper stock. Cotton rags go to paper max
ers, while house rags and disn cloths which
are covered with grease, are sold to hop
growers for manure All kinds of paper are
sent to the PAPER mache manufacturer, who
produces various ornamental and useful
articles, such as tea trays, cigar and tobacco
cases and match boxes. Bones are boiled for
their grease and gelatine, converted into
charcoal and used i'll sugar refineries, sold to
the tanner who manufactures case handles
knife handles and other useful articles or
they are ground up and sold to the farmer
as phosphates of lime, forming an excellent
and highly valued manure.
Old bottles, Walls and fragments of glass
are remelted. colored by a unique process
and made into fiat pieces which are broken
up into irregular shapes to serve as mosaic
window glass. Pieces of tin and tin cans
are sold to chemical works or to manufact-
urers who melt them into window weights.
Old boots are sold to men who patch them
up for the cheap trade, or if they are too
dilapidated they are ground up with other
fragments of leather and compressed into
insoles for cheap shoes. The tin and solder
are removed from old saucepans and sold to
the dealer in these articles In Paris the
utility of everything Is demonstrated Coal
and ashes are sold to brick burners, the dye
is extracted from scarlet cloths for wood
